Tecnomatix vs. TrakSYS

Plant Sim well-suited for rough-cut BoP design followed by discrete event simulation to do capability evaluation and tradeoff analysis, as well as to select optimal floorspace and asset pool. Process Sim well-suited for detailed cell/line layout, detailed process design, robot OLP, and virtual commissioning.

When you have manufacturing lines that need proper control and want to collect information based on how well it run then TrakSYS is ideal. TrakSYS has a template system that support generic setup of multiple lines. TrakSYS however is not ideal if you want to deviate too much from the template model. It is possible but defeats the purpose of the template system. Better then to write a customised solution outside of the software.

Both are good products so it was a difficult decision. In the end of the day it came down to to TrakSYS being more customisable. However it is more expensive though.
